They should cancel your contract and take you to court for even dreaming of doing something like this. It sickens me how you're trying to justify lying or purposefully destroying your phone. I guess your mother never taught you to keep your promises, of which a contract is one.

EDIT: this post is directed towards utb and crimeslunk, not those of you who want to seek a legal trade in.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WithFireandIron:
Insurance is good for piece of mind but I don't think its really necessary with something like this. Like I'm sure most people do, I try to take decent(though admittedly not perfect) care of my phone. Despite having taken it to multiple concerts(of the Death Metal and Hardcore punk variety even) and parties over the past year, my case and screen protector have kept it in pretty good condition.

The one problem that I have encountered with my Evo has been just recently. The power button was stuck pushed down, so I ended up looking this problem up online. Brought it to the Sprint store, and guess what? Covered under warranty and all I had to pay was $50 to get a brand new replacement Evo. I'd much rather take decent care of my phone and save $120 than pay for the ability to be reckless with my phone.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] metalfan78:
I'm sure we all baby our evo, I know I do. I trust myself to not need insurance for it, its everyone and everything besides me that I got the insurance for....its like car insurance, you probably wont ever use it but when something happens it makes life easier. Like you said, peace of mind

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rugedraw:
I thought the same thing until I got my replacement Evo yesterday and found it came in an OEM box with everything sealed and new. I called Asurion to ask if the phone they sent me was new or refurbished, and I was assured it was a new device.

Needless to say, I was pleasantly surprised.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bkrodgers:
Sorry, I should have been more specific -- yes, you may get a new Evo as well if that's what they have. My point was more that they're not going to ask you if you'd like the nice new Evo3D when you file an insurance claim on the Evo you threw in the toilet, as the poster had suggested.

What are you waiting for? There's not going to be a trade in. Even if there was, it would be guess than you would get selling it on Craigslist, probably by a lot. Not too sure why you're so worried about it. It will take very little effort to sell.

I noticed that honeycomb music player has leaked but it isnt getting installed on my phone ..... Can anyone tell me how to install the honeycomb music player or any player that has multi select option while creating playlist !!!

Wow , I seriously didnt think of that ! Duh ... if i could get a proper player from market why will i post such a query over here
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jeffdijkstra:
The stock player is a bit of a let down so I got PowerAmp (mainly for it's lock screen widget and awesome features which the Ace does not have by default but other Samsung phones do...) you can try it for free for 2 weeks which is a full featured trial.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] prat_merc:
ya i already tried that .... but dont u c .. have no issues with the stock music player ... it works good with fine equilizer ... the thing is ... it doesnt have an option where u can have multiple selection of song at one go (or sharing multiple songs). so want a player ... which can satisfy these needs ! ANY HELP ??!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rockingwing:
Hey :) it isnt possible with the stockplayer, but try poweramp :) its a really good player

Looks pretty good and has room to charge another battery while your phone is docked and charging.

[Thunderbolt Accessories] eleazar123:
Hm.. nice find. That is tempting. I wish it was a bit cheaper.

I'll probably pick one up anyways to use at work. Looks like it won't fit a tbolt with a case. :(
[Thunderbolt Accessories] loztboy:
Yeah looks like the TB will have to be naked to fit in this dock. Please post your review as soon as you get it.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] heffe2001:
If you wait a bit, I'm certain you'll be able to find it cheaper on ebay. You should start seeing other chineese companies selling them for much less, but shipped from China (slower to get here though).

I have the Incredible dock that is similar, and hacked it up to hold the phone with a case on it (doesn't look pretty, but it DOES work).
[Thunderbolt Accessories] 92slammer:
yep i bought one from amazon...listed that its for the merge but it fits....its tight but it fits...also it has to be naked..which sucks, but the for the price its a good deal

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004JX1FOY
[Thunderbolt Accessories] gadget!:
When you plug the TB in, does sense rotate to landscape like the car dock?
[Thunderbolt Accessories] Sweeny Russ:
Virus rom does rotates without the dock.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] 92slammer:
no it doesnt .....and scratch this off your list....it stopped working this morning....the usb charger part for the phone died....returning to amazon now!
[Thunderbolt Accessories] jacobk:
was it the adapter that died or the connected cord or plug set in the dock? would love to buy this, especially for the price.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] 92slammer:
not sure....it just stopped charging the phone...would charge the spare battery fine though
[Thunderbolt Accessories] jjlangen:
Thanks for the Amazon link, been looking for a dock with spare battery charger for cheap.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] racinwarrior:
i was going to buy this but not now since it stopped working for you
[Thunderbolt Accessories] heffe2001:
I had that problem on my charger for the DInc, and it ended up the actual USB plug housing had split apart, and the plug was sliding back into the housing. I ended up fixing it (mine came from china, so no recourse there), and it still works fine. Just curious if that was the problem with your unit or not.

Also looks like you can get it cheaper on ebay now. As with anything from China, you take a gamble on quality... I might pick one up and see if it works with my pop case, although the USB header might be a tad too short to reach and some plastic will definitely have to be shaved off to get it to fit the back.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] andydumi:
Anyone find a charger without the big extra battery back?
[Thunderbolt Accessories] suzook:
I just ordered it...I will give an update when I receive it.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] justnada22:
Yes, it has to be naked in order to fit into the dock.

I have 23 of these in stock... tested one and it works great.

Any questions let me know.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] boingboingbilly:
I ordered one too - figured not too big of a risk for that $$ and my TB will be staying naked anyway. $25 shipped on Ebay vs $60(!) for the official one.

Edit:

Funny, as soon as I posted this, the dock arrived - FAST shipping! The dock is not bad, works fine. The only complaint I have is that the phone is held almost completely vertical, no angle at all really. So that makes it a little awkward for watching video but not too bad. Charges fine, USB works fine, insertion and removal is easy. As stated before, you cannot use a case with this dock, it is a snug fit. Slot on the back for charging a second battery.

Time will tell with the durability, but it serves my needs well - easy place to plug in and charge at my office desk. Recommended especially considering the price. If the HTC dock has HDMI (I doubt it) then maybe it will be worth $60. In the meantime this is shipping and shipping fast!
[Thunderbolt Accessories] Diversion:
I'd buy one of these if the extended battery would fit on the dock :/
[Thunderbolt Accessories] gadget!:
I ordered one as well, and your complaint is the same as mine...

The phone is almost vertical when docked.

I will not be using it.

In fact if anyone wants it, I'd sell it for 20 bucks shipped (US only).
[Thunderbolt Accessories] DRLyman:
FWIW Newegg has them for $28, but they are out of stock right now....

[Thunderbolt Accessories] mikeszekely:
I ordered one from Amazon by RND Power Solutions. It looks decent, and is reasonably priced (around $28). I just hope it doesn't wind up being crappy. Before I ordered, I did a Google search, but I couldn't find anyone talking about it.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] heffe2001:
Looks like that link from newegg is from their mall, so be aware that it's not actually FROM Newegg (and it gets a 404 error besides)..

I am thinking really hard of coming to verizon from tmobile for the thunderbolt or the droid bionic. The thing is, they are expensive as hell to me, and i have no desire to spend 110-125 on a phone bill every month.

SO i figured out some ways to get a cheaper bill:

1) get the cheapest minute plan with no text (39.99) plus the data plan (29.99)

2)Use goog voice for text messages

3)Use skype for unlimited voice calls(9.99)

The only thing is i dont know how the quality of skypes voice calls are when going over 3g. As long as i can make decent calls over 3g and receive them with no problems, then it sounds like a decent plan to save money.

What do you all think?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddarvish:
umm you will need to find a hacked .apk of skype to make calls over 3G. honestly its not worth the trouble.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] strongergravity:

Umm... I use GV for some of my voice calls, and I have confirmed that it work via numbers not bing shown on my cell bill. Download GV and GV call back. I don't know how it works, but it does.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jcnbama1983:
I have a TMO US Leo HD2 Running Cyanogen 7. I found the original mod in the NAND section of XDA site originally. Now, I cant find the forum for it. Did it get removed from the site? I checked out Cyanogenmod.com but it doesnt mention the HD2 being a supported device. I am just looking for some information on an issue Im having with the mod.

Does anyone know whats going on? Is this still a supported rom? Where can I find information i.e. forum, blog etc relating to the Leo HD2 and the Cyanogen rom 7 . Thanks sincerely for anyones help ! ! :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] namila007:
pleae go to setting>aboutphone and paste everything there.i think that you are using MDj's cm7 nand rom.that thread has closed due to some reason ...;) try hyperdeoid cm7 ver instead of it

:)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jcnbama1983:
I have the following.

HTC HD2

Android Version 2.3.2

MDJ's CyanogenMod 7 (v.2.6) A2SD+

Build number GRH78C

the trouble is that the camera and especially the video recorder crashes often. I am just trying to find if there is a work around or update ar something I can do . I lose videos often because when I press "stop" on recording it just kinda freezes and never saves the video. I have the up to date Radio and everything. I am just not sure what causes this. Everything else works great.

I really don't want to have to flash yet another rom. This is like my 6th droid and finally found one that works and is fast on the HD2 and doesn's suck the life out of the processor or battery. I have a 5 month old son though and have a tendency to grab my phone before my regular camera for those funny moments lol.

Any thoughts on this issue ?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Skellyyy:
Yes that's the problem. MDJ isn't allowed to share his work on these forums anymore because he didn't agree to share his code. So you won't find any updates for that ROM and you are on the latest version. There are many other fast CyanogenMod ROM's out there. Pongster has a good one. You'll find them all in the development section. I think they're usually all the same but coded a little differently etc.

You won't even notice the difference between a new cyanogen ROM and the one you're currently on other than bugs fixed.

I'm afraid you'll have to flash a new ROM.

Hi, today I installed MIUI beta 7 but I didn't like it, so I just uninstalled it installing another older ROM.

The problem is that I tried with:

- Wipe everything, install official JPY_JPY_JPY via odin (no lagfix)

- Wipe everything, install RomKitchen's XWJS8 via CWM (hadcore kernel)

- Wipe everything, install RomKitchen's ZSJPJ via CWM (voodoo lagfix)

And none of these works. When shows the white "S" boot animation it just freezes and vibrates.

What can I do for recover my Galaxy S? :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B-1P:
repartition

[Nook Color General] labrazil:
Hello Everyone,

I am new to the forum, but not totally new to rooting and flashing ROMs. I have a MT3G (second android phone to come to the market...yes I'm old school :)), rooted and flashed CM7-Gingerbread 2.3.3 and it's working very well.

I also managed to buy a NookColor, immediately rooted it and flashed phiremod nook v5.1. and everything is very good. My Quadrant Score is 1485

However, what I've noticed is that if I compare the battery usage on mytouch 3g vs the nookcolor I see something interesting and I think it might have to do with the overall battery drain I've noticed on the nook....I'm hoping someone here can shed some light.

When I go to my settings > about tablet > battery use, I can see a graph on the top. If I click it, it shows a nice relationship between time (x-axis), battery % (y-axis) and underneath it are 5 variables (Phone Signal, Wi-fi, Awake, Screen on, Charging). These variables are key because you can see what is really draining a battery.

See the two attached images. One is from mytouch 3g and the other is the nook. What you can see is that when my nook is sleep, it drains a lot faster than MT3G and in fact what you see is that the PHONE SIGNAL is constantly on, where when my MT3G is sleep, the PHONE SIGNAL IS NOT....

Is there a way to completely remove this 'phone signal'...I suspect we can get more battery life out of our nook if we can just remove this!!!

Thanks for reading.
[Nook Color General] drx69:
easy to do if you have adb.. otherwise use terminal.

rename the following files in /system/app

Mms.apk

TelephonyProvider.apk

Phone.apk (phone will keep forceclosing.

reboot.

If you are not using adb, just force power off using the power button.

When it comes up, you will have much better battery life.
[Nook Color General] labrazil:
Yeah, I saw that posted somewhere, and I've done that. So does the phone signal still appear on yours after you renamed it?

I wonder if this procedure is enough.....
[Nook Color General] khaytsus:
Enough to remove Phone from being listed in Spare Parts? Yep. It won't change anything.
[Nook Color General] ylixir:
CM7 is really bad with the battery. It doesn't sleep properly. The phone or lack of phone has nothing to do with it. It doesn't have a cell radio after all ;-)

Apparently there is a bug and it crashes or something? when it sleeps. I read that the devs just disabled sleep until they can get it fixed. I think that will probably happen after video is all working.

It still easily lasts through the day with a fair bit of use though. I just charge every night instead of every third ;-)
[Nook Color General] labrazil:
Okay, so it's safe to assume that the devs are working on this for future ROMs/Kernals? I really like my nook even though I just got the wifi-xoom today.
[Nook Color General] RoboRay:
There's already been a 20+ page thread on this, where comparitive testing found no actual diference in battery life by removing those functions. The result is a purely cosmetic change where the power consumed under "cell standby" is shifted to "phone idle" or something else, I forget exactly. Any perceived improvements in battery life are a placebo effect and/or simply the result of the variables in different day-to-day usage.

Removing them also causes Market problems with certain apps not showing up due to "incompatibility" with devices lacking those functions, which I suspect is why they are not removed in the first place.

The NC's "high" power drain on CM7 is because it's not allowed to actually sleep due too a kernal bug which prevents it from reliably waking up. This will get fixed eventually. Right now, "sleep" simply turns off the screen.
